Love your videos! As a meteorologist in New Hampshire, thanks for measuring the snow and liquid equivalent - it really does help us a lot!

I’ve only seen the Whites in summer, thank you for taking us along!

Having thru hiked the Whites this past summer and appreciating the extreme weather then, it’s hard to imagine living there in winter. Thanks for the great videos and for taking us along!

Great reminders of my Long Trail hike (VT) in 1987 and Appalachian Trail hike (NH) in 1991 --- during the summer

Hey Abby, really enjoying these videos. Thought of you this weekend as I hiked across the road up to Lookout Ledge among other trails. Having hiked nearly every trail in the Presidential Range these videos offer a sense of intimate appreciation you can only get from wandering these mountains. I look forward to following along this journey of yours and perhaps I'll see you on trail someday. Stay warm up there!

Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm sure most of us daydream about these kinds of things while hiking through and thinking about the people who maintain the sites, so it's really interesting to get a look at the challenges and everything else.

I live in Gorham and in 1986, I spent a week at Grey Knob hiking around with my dog Rambo... Gary Chabot was the caretaker at this time and also a high school classmate... I just started to watch your videos and they are awesome... love the artist angles of the landscape... Enjoy your time, as it will be a highlight in your memories...

Hi I've had RMC and their cabins on my radar the last couple years. Thanks for sharing! You're a cutie!

The peace and solitude is so nice. What a neat place.

Ms Abby I’m glad your channel showed up in my feed That job would be such an awesome way to go The peace and solitude along with the incredible winters beauty Really enjoyed the video Take care, keep safe & warm👍🏻🙏🏻😃 See you on your next video

I’m new to your channel. I think you have the best job in the World! I’d love to spend the better part of my day by a wood burning stove, reading a book and just taking in nature. I’m loving your videos. Thank you for sharing with us.

This place and the surroundings are simply perfect for hiking. Gorgeous scenery my friend!

It's wonderful that you are making the effort and taking the time to learn the history of the region. Well done.

Hi Abby , your videos are awesome. Love the trail running as I used to trail run up until a couple years back. We visited the White Mountains last year, and I can certainly see why you love this place so much. Our highlight was Mount Washington in some of the worst weather we have ever encountered, and that was in July. There were dedicated trail runners up there that day enduring the horrible conditions which I was amazed at their dedication. Keep up the great videos!

It has been a long time since I spent time on the top of a mountain in winter. I forgot how beautiful it is. Thank you for sharing. I am jealous of your job. Lucky you.

I have enjoyed the mountain aspects and caretaker vids. What you said about the cold reminded me of spending my vacations at our cabin in February, no water and only a wood stove. We did have electricity though. One thing I remember that is hard to explain to people is how things sound different, maybe it is the silence outside, but the great squeak the snow has at -20 seems to exist in other things as well.

Very interesting and educational too. Thank you for sharing

I appreciate your excellent solo videography, you have really captured the essence of a winter days in the Whites. Brrrrrrr😊

Love these updates. Please keep them rolling!

The undercast is gorgeous

Super! Beautiful! Loved It! Excellent choice of music. You are a very tough and strong individual. Keep the videos coming. Looking forward to meeting some of your visitors to your hut, lean-to or tent platforms. Thanks for sharing. You are also an excellent video director and your choice of talent is superb. Thanks again. Kevin

I have been enjoying your videos Ms Abby. I read Dharma Bums and often can relate to solo cabin life myself and the joy it brings with time to practice are crafts and the stillness it allows for thought. Greetings from the North Cascades from a cabin in the woods .R

Hello Abby. Luckily the YT algorithm suggested me your channel, I guess because I love all things related to the outdoors. I also agree with many comments about the great scenery of that area of New Hampshire and the work you do as a mountain hut caretaker, but what I enjoyed the most was your tranquility and demeanor along with the beautiful photography and relaxing music. Thank you very much and God bless you!

Outstanding video, have a great day.

I cant believe you have that job, good for you.

The algorithm nailed it when it sent me here. I’ve been meaning to get to your hut. Have a great winter.

this is so cool

I am SO glad I stumbled upon your channel. That job sounds like heaven. I just wish you could keep the cabin warmer. When I get cold here on the NH seacoast, I will think of you and not feel so bad. How long is your stay ? Be safe!!

Hi Abby! Love these videos. I have a lot of wonderful memories of times spent at grey knob. Might make a winter trek up there soon.

Just ordered that White Mtns book based on your rec! Very excited to read - Finn

Great videos!

Rocking chair, good book, fire. That's all I want. Been looking at the Sierra Madre Occidental for that. You life advice ('Do what I want, when I want', best I recall from last week) is spot on. Possessions possess us not we them. Experiences make us who we are and we largely choose the experiences that shape us in a healthy manner. good on ya! I have a healthy respect for those mountains you're in. They're not that high but perhaps that's why they can kill you easily if precautions aren't heeded. I read a book on the same subject when I first moved to Oregon and unfortunately the Feds didn't do nearly enough to prohibit or enforce deforestation. The logging barons mowed everything from east to west not sparing those forests down south either. The Big Thicket is now a small fraction of what it was and those who sourced medicinals from it not only lost their sources but eventually their skills as well. Now Big Pharma is trying to recover what they knew centuries ago. Sounds like Brazil is following in our tradition too. Thankfully we're not powerful enough to destroy Earth itself, just it's ability to sustain us.

a peaceful video. beautiful scenery and calm surroundings

1 degree sounds like so much fun lol, thanks for another great video

Awesome updates👋

Hey Abby 👉 Hi Babby😆😆

Absolutely COOL !

Abby is using snowshoes :O

Beautiful area. Thanks for sharing your adventure and job. What a wonderful place to work. I have lots of questions about how you power your electronics. I think solar but being in the NE do you have enough sunshine and with lots of snow you really have to keep up with cleaning them off. You say you share responsibilities with another worker. How many days on an off or what is your length of stay. I have more questions but will ask later. Looking forward to your new adventures. Stay safe.

Love your videos please make more.

It was my understanding that all mountain huts are closed in the winter. Having some open may help those in distress.

How did you get such a perfect avocado up there? I live in a southern city and seldom get such a nice one.

Too bad you don’t knit or crochet! And audio book and some handwork! Heavenly! 23 is not very chilly, it is cold!!

You ARE protecting our world.

Wow, Northern New is getting a lot of snow. Might have to hit the slopes.

Curious why you don’t keep the cabin warmer? Love your videos!

I like your channel 😊

So surprised the cabin isn't better insulated - 17 degrees outside and 23 degrees inside?? Yikes

alright, I'll sub. Hopefully soon; I'll see a new video. Hehehe

I just want to let you know you have my dream job !

😍

Why doesn't the wood burning fireplace keep you warmer than 23 degrees?

Fire is actually really good for the ground. Ask why do farmers burn off their fields in the fall.

Seeking BALANCE ( WHILE ) Understanding CHOICES. Its a Double edged sword for most to DIGEST. WHY ? You touched on this as a statement. PLENTY of time to do all that later. *B. U. T.

Thanks for the videos! What was the first book you mentioned? Mountain places?

I would like to do this and just read, but it looks really cold even with the stove it might be 40F? Nice video!

🔔 that’s a pretty small wood stove

It would help when you're feeling so cold to actually wear appropriate clothing, especially on your legs! Also, sitting for 4 hours will reduce your core temperature still further. You have an absolute dream job but appear to waste the experience by moping around the cabin a lot of the time. You'll regret that as you get older - trust me I know.

Wow

How do you make a reservation for the cabin. Love to go but not sure how to reserve a space. Also can my dog go also. Thank you

Being in the mountains like that have you had any Sasquatch experiences? Thats the perfect setting for them.

That woodstove should provide enough heat to be more than comfortable. If you are cold all the time then you are not using it properly. Take a few minutes and either read up on woodstove use or watch a ton of you tube videos on woodstove operation. The short is keep a good bed of coals in it and if the stove has a damper understand how to use it and you will be more than comfortable even in the coldest days!

Would you tell me about your choices in layering? I see several different outer layers.

You're always so

👋😊

No bears ?

At the shelter, what were you shoveling snow off of? The roof or?

What are you burning? Have you encountered many animals? Are you ready to protect yourself from bears and such? Five degrees warmer than ambient isn’t very much, is there no way to insulate?

This girl ok? Been three weeks

To have girl like you would be so nice....😌

I am so sorry the east coast sucks so much and you don't know any better. What a pickle! (Move out west)

Are you related to Ally Marie Brown? You look and talk like her

Do you have solar power for the cabin??
